Half A Page And Dexter

Its my turn to be the one slacking off as Sae catches up with me. Fortunately, this page is a really nice page, so its going quite fast despite not spending as much time as I should be doing HAED.

Here's my progress pics, I'm about half way through my third full page.

One of the reasons why I've been slowing down is because I've started watching Dexter:
Everyone's been raving about Dexter for ages now but somehow their description about it never appealed to me. "Oh Dexter's this forensic investigator, he helps solve all these murders, but he's actually also a serial killer." I immediately started humming the CSI theme in my head. But, finally we started on Dexter and it's been a really pleasant surprise.

Dexter is indeed a forensic investigator with the Miami police dept and he is very good at what he does and he is also a serial killer. I was dreading that this would be a very 'serious' type of show but its actually really quite funny. Dexter grew up with this natural urges to kill people and his foster father trained him to only kill murderers and also how to hide his 'real' side from the outside world. As a result, he's a bit abnormal and has trouble knowing how to act normal.

I'm up to the second season right now. In the first season, the police dept are busy hunting down a serial killer codenamed the Ice Truck Killer. the Ice Truck Killer in turn is busy playing games with Dexter. In this second season, the focus is on Dexter as the bodies of his victims are discovered and the police dept has to hunt down the Bay Harbour Butcher and Dexter's trying to stay one step ahead.

For a show with a lot of killing and corpses, its not too squeemish. Its a fun show :).
